Mexico Gold Lyrics - Hollies

Thought I'd take a trip down to the old world 

'cause I heard a lot of things about the North American girls 

I was looking for a lady 

someone to have my baby 

So I got me on a 747 Pan-American plane 

I sat me down next to your all-American dame 

Said I'm going up north 

she said it's a pity 

Then she told about the gold 

down in Mexico City

Oh she said "Lordy Lordy 

watch the blue smoke flying 

every morning and every night 

to get you out of your head 

Oh man oh Lordy Lordy it's a natural high 

when you're living down south 

and it's going right out of your head 

Got off the plane went to the customs 

and they gave me a list 

Do you carry a gun take drugs or are you Communist 

They said my papers were in order 

I wasn't staying long no sir 

I'm going south across the border

Took the first southbound 

across the Rio and down 

Found a little place in the small Mexico town 

Just me and my lady 

now she's having my baby
